These cookies are the easiest cookie to make during the holidays – and the kids can help! I use my amazing sugar cookie recipe that everyone will love–including Santa! You can also use refrigerated cookie dough for a semi-homemade option – no one will know.
You can make this recipe even more simple by buying dough and frosting from the store or you can make my own frosting! To make the recipe just like a reindeer, I added a red M&M for a red noise, and chocolate covered pretzels for the best antlers. How cute are they? They’re perfect for a Christmas party.
Ingredients Needed
Sugar Cookie Dough: Use store-bought or homemade! Vanilla Frosting: Store-bought frosting is great, or you can make mine! Red M&Ms: Make these reindeer just like Rudolph! Chocolate Covered Pretzels: For the antlers – you can also use plain mini pretzel twists. Candy Eyes or chocolate chips
How to make Adorable Reindeer Cookies
Bake in a preheated oven according to package or recipe directions on a baking sheet. Place on a wire rack to cool. Frost with vanilla icing, then add your decorations. Place two eyes (or chocolate chip eyes), an M&M red nose, and mini pretzel antlers on each cookie.
Expert Tips
Take some work off your own plate and have the kids make these! They are so easy that you’ll barely need to help! Use any kind of cookie to make this recipe – a chocolate sugar cookie or even peanut butter cookie would be fantastic. You can even use chocolate frosting if you like! You can store these cookies in the freezer if you’re making them ahead. They’ll be the hit of the cookie swap.FAQs
You can! Freeze them in an airtight container for up to 3 months!
